Which does a better job, this model or the Bissell Spotlifter Powerbrush Handheld Deep Cleaner (corded)?

i dont know about the powerbrush cleaner but the bissell spotlifter 2 is a great little machine. i really clean up a small spill and for really touch spots, i do spray additional cleaner before the use the bissell.

Well, I don't like this one. After you do all the prep to get it ready, it only runs for a few seconds at a time, and is actually pretty heavy for a handheld device. At least it is for me. I am wanting to return this one.

Kathy , I have the both models , thee re-chargeable is the best one for me and the one with the cord , I feel the cord is to short and don't feel right while I'm shaving , the cord is always in the way

From what I have read the BG10 has two motors and detachable power cord vs. the 86T3 which has one motor. The BG10 is a serious cleaning machine and works great with the three dogs and two kids in the house this is the deep cleaner.

I have had both. The newer model actually lasted less time than the older models. I did not see any advantage in cleaning.

Hi, Lillian. I have never used the Bissell Spot cleaner professional portable but I can tell you about a couple of extra features that are on the Rug Doctor. The Rug Doctor Portable Spot Cleaner has a telescoping handle as well as the carry handle. It has wheels so you can roll the cleaner to its location. I don't know about the Bissell cleaner, but the Rug Doctor model also allows you to reach your hand into the dirty water tank to wipe the inside. Even with antimicrobial surfaces, all of the cleaners eventually grow bacteria inside of the tank. This feature is excellent. On the downside, the Rug Doctor portable cleaning solution is not as available in the stores as the Bissell solution. However, you can use any of the Rug Doctor solutions in the portable cleaner. I just use about 1 oz. of cleaner per tank. I hope this info helps you make a decision. So far, I have been happy with my Rug Doctor. I hope this answer helps you make a more informed decision. Good luck!

I have a Bissel Little Green Machine that I have used for years cleaning the cat yak... It works great and completely cleans the mess. The only problem is after 7 years is has a bad smell because the inner workings can not be easily cleaned. I am looking to replace it just because of the smell.

I have both. The corded has by far the most power. It is bigger and heavier. I use the cordless around the house for small jobs and the corded for drilling steel and rotary files

Hi Karla. I'm Diane (Edward's wife) and I'm the one who purchased and uses the machine. I have a fair amount of carpet, with a number of different piles, in my home. I have owned three different carpet cleaning machines over the years. I love this machine. I much prefer the roller brushes (as opposed to the spinning scrubbers on my prior Hoover machine). I checked Bissell's website to compare the two models and refresh my memory. I bought the 47A2 based on the following: 47A2 has a bigger tank (1.25 gallons compared to 1 gallon); 47A2 has dual power brushes with 10 cleaning rows ( compared to 8852's one power brush with 6 cleaning rows). I think 47A2 is a bit lighter. I thought my prior Hoover was decent, but when I took the 47A2 for a test drive on my "two dog" carpet, I was impressed. It cleaned beautifully and it really "sucks". My carpet dried very quickly. Hopes this helps.

My opinion is that it should depending on the type of carpet. Carpet with tall nap (such as shag), probably not as the sweeper cleans surface unlike a vaccum that "sucks" up debris. My sweeper picks up cat hair, leaves, string and other items that appear on the carpet between vaccuming. I am very happy with the Bissell's performance, plus I don't have to worry about batteries or electricity. Just a quick once over with the sweeper between weekly vaccums and the carpets look great. By the way, it works on bare floors also. Hope this was helpful.

The upholstery tool attaches to the cleaner and it has a port to which you plug in asmall hose which feeds the water-cleaner mix. There isn't a power brush but the mix is sprayed on the area to be cleaned. I haven't used this feature but I am sure it would work well. This machine has lots of suction.

The power brush is model PB23, part number CT700. The telescopic wand is model CT275.

This machine has professional grade suction. The bissel machine I had previously did not compare.

Julie, I use both a cordless battery powered drill and a corded electric drill. Battery for small quick jobs and the corded for longer duration jobs like grout and tile cleaning a large bathroom. Hope this helps! : )

I think I know what tool you are talking about and if I remember correctly, it is present on both models. Are they talking about the tool that connects to the end of the wand that has the spinning brush in it? If we are thinking of the same thing, then I believe it is present in both.Here, check these links out out:4104features: http://www.bissell.com/Products/p/4104powergroompet/ak/features/product.aspx3920 features: http://www.bissell.com/Products/p/3920/ak/features/product.aspx

Thank you! I have since repaired my old Dyson DC21 canister. I tried the new Dyson canister and it only has an air driven (not electric powered)rug brush. Useless for pet hair. I also tried the DC 65 upright. Nothing worked as well as the original. Although Dyson assured me air driven was more powerful, it was a joke.

In my opinion... the Rug Doctor. I previously owned a Bissel upright unit...the trigger (which when pulled releases the soap onto the carpet) never worked properly. Bissel units are entirely plastic. I didn't care for it because it didn't perform. This small hand held Rug Doctor performs very well...BUT again it is a spot cleaner. Hope this helps
